DVD
Many DVD-based DVRs are equipped with two DVD drives or an additional internal
hard drive. This arrangement can be used to copy content from a source DVD,
which is disallowed in the U.S. under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act if
the disc is encrypted. Most such DVRs will hence not allow recording of video
streams from encrypted movie discs.
Digital camcorders
Some DVD-based DVRs incorporate a Firewire connector which can be used to
capture digital video from a MiniDV or Digital 8 camcorder, possibly recording a
simple DVD as the camcorder is played back. Some editing of the resulting DVD is
usually possible, such as adding chapter points.
